WWE secured a new trademark that will be used for a ring name.
WWE did so on August 26th with The United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The trademarks that WWE filed for “Von Wagoner.” Here is the description:
“G & S: Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibitions and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer rendered live and through broadcast media including television and radio, and via the internet or commercial online service; providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment via an online community portal; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information; fan club services, namely, organizing sporting events in the field of wrestling for wrestling fan club members; organizing social entertainment events for entertainment purposes for wrestling fan club members; providing online newsletters in the fields of sports entertainment; online journals, namely blogs, in the field of sports entertainment.”
As of this writing, it’s unknown who will be using the name. WWE did just hold a talent tryout and signed several wrestlers so it’s possible one of them will use the name.
